The Media Is Too Cowardly To Show The Parents Of Kurd Children Killed By Trump / Turkey / Putin

I blame the corporate owned media for ALL our problems.

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100212581135

From hate radio to showing a month of hurricanes and never mentioning global warming, climate change, or the fact that the Gulf is up to 7 degrees warmer then "normal" in some areas.

Now they show "eye candy" of smoke in the distance in Syria, but not the body parts of blown away children Trump and his buddies massacred.

Owning media is great!

Show eye candy, distort everything so no one questions the fact that the world's richest 1% own and control all that happens on the planet, and make money selling advertising.

When someone gets close to "rocking the boat" like Bernie, or even Hillary for that matter the media massacres them by distorting everything. EeeeeeeeMails!!!!!!!!! Never once mentioning all the crimes Trump and his family openly committed.

I want America to see what pieces of children Trump and Erdogan and Putin killed look like. Children's body parts.

Perspective for the deplorables to defend.

Control the Narrative. If that does not work,create a new Narrative in order to control the original Narrative.

Murdoch Media Model.

I really feel if the press showed the actual photos, that warfare would stop. As long as we can brush it away, it will continue.

I sadly agree with your disagreement. Pictures that are disturbing do just that, disturb (Latin, dis- + turbare). It can change things.

So all them people in Iraq that died. What did they do to us?

If you wanted to control Saddam, stop buying his oil, and arrest all the folks that were funding him through the oil for food scam.

War = $$$$$

Corporations profit from war, as well as the media.

No profit in peace.

In Syria it is much worse.

If deplorable had in their face what carnage their Fuhrer causes every single day they would be former deplorables when it becomes too much. Right now half the media is soothing them.....

In fact, I just commented yesterday to SO that it was unusual for the media to show those graphic images.
